Hey.

Yeah you.

Stop scrolling for just a second (really that’s all).

Take a deep breath.

Exhale slowly.

Do that once or twice.

Ok that’s all thank you. Please remember to take care of yourself tonight.

It's like sigma summation notation, except instead of summing the argument over all values of i, you 2 the argument over all values of 2.

Mastodon is cool but it lacks my favorite feature from birdsite which is the timeline jumping as soon as your eyes see an interesting post that you'll never find again

Obviously, the main shortcoming of the Scratch development ecosystem is the lack of a robust cryptography library.

Until now!

Here's x25519 ECDH key exchange, blake2s hashing, and ChaCha20-Poly1305 AEAD - in Scratch

I've enabled invites on this instance. Not sure why they were disabled. This should make it easier to invite people from Twitter to follow you

I also won't tolerate any hatred towards Russians for the actions of their leader. I have Russian friends too. They're not to blame for this just like I'm not to blame for the invasion of Iraq by the UK government. Russians can be sent to prison for protesting or saying they don't support the war. There's a huge amount of censorship and propaganda for people living there. The Russian people are also victims of Putin's dictatorship.

I thought I should make things clear because I've already seen some mentions of it.

Putin's invasion of Ukraine is horrific. There's no justification for it and I won't tolerate anyone trying to. I've been to Ukraine, it's the first country I ever visited. I have friends there. They're all suffering. It's easy to sit comfy and safe in your home with a cup of tea and criticise based on what you've read on Wikipedia and Twitter.

That said...

gay people listen to mother mother it's a fact

French, Chinese, Dutch, German, Spanish, Portuguese, Greek, Indonesian, it's cool to see people from so many different countries and cultures on here

Your reminder that stuff you see on the Federated timeline is stuff on other instances. You may see things you don't like, you may see things that break the rules on this instance (NSFW content without a warning, etc), but I can't enforce our rules on other instances. It's like reporting someone on Facebook for breaking TikTok's rules.

Of course you should always report racist and hateful stuff always, because all instances we federate with should disallow such content.

Thank ya kindly.

The fun thing about Mastodon.lol is there's no freedom of speech here. There wasn't on Twitter either, despite what some people think, but Twitter took the "debate is good" approach.

I'm taking the "trans rights! and also Nazis fuck off forever" approach. I like that better.

If you're curious how the traffic to Mastodon.lol changed over the last few days...

Calling all followers of our main account on lgbt.io! 🔊

This account is our back-up, until the issues on lgbt.io are resolved. It'll become our main account if lgbt.io goes down permanently.

If you've got #LGBTQ+ / #nonbinary / #trans followers, boosting this post would be a big help, because at the moment posts aren't federating from #LGBT.io, and account migration isn't working at all.

For more on the issues with #LGBTio, read their Patreon post here: https://www.patreon.com/posts/server-os-update-65649330

Thank you. :)
